Subsequently, R. haematites has also been discovered in Fujian and Guangxi. A detailed description of the morphology, anatomy and chemistry of these species are given in this paper. This study enriched the species diversity of lichens in Yunnan, Fujian and Guangxi provinces, and provided basic data and reliable data for the taxonomic study of lichens in Caloplaca and Ramboldia. The specimens examined are deposited in the Herbarium of Shandong Normal Univesity (SDNU). Key words: taxonomy, lichenized fungi, East Asia chinaXiv:201903.00193v1 Introduction The Jingdong Yi Autonomous County is located in Southwestern Yunnan. It has a subtropical monsoon climate and a variation from 795 to 3 371 m above sea level. The annual average relative humidity is 77%, and the annual average rainfall is 1 086.7 mm. Caloplaca Th. Fr. s. lat. (Teloschistaceae, Teloschistales, Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota) is a genus characterized by a crustose or placodioid thallus. There are about 350 species worldwide (Lücking, 2016). The species usually have orange, K+ purple (anthraquinones present) apothecia, but the most important delimitation is the presence of polarbilocular ascospores. In 1881, Müller placed a group of species bearing plurilocular ascospores (3–6 locules) under Caloplaca section Triophthalmidium. This section is mostly distributed in tropical and subtropical regions of the world and is mainly corticolous, rarely saxicolous (Smith, 2009; Joshi et al., 2014). The genus Ramboldia (Ramboldiaceae, Lecanorales, Lecanoromycetes, Ascomycota) was established by Kantvilas & Elix (1994). This genus is characterized by a crustose thallus with ChinaXiv合作期刊 lecideoid apothecia, Lecanora-type asci, anastomosing paraphyses, and simple and persistently hyaline ascospores (Elix, 2004; Kantvilas et al., 1994, 2007). Some species have orange to red-pigmented apothecia due to the presence of russulone and related anthraquinones (Kantvilas et al., 1994; Kalb et al., 2008). Ramboldia contains about 30 species worldwide (Lücking, 2016). In China only four Ramboldia species, R. cinnabarina, R. elabens, R. heterocarpa and R. russula, have been reported (Zahlbruckner, 1930; Abdulla & Wu, 1998; Aptroot & Sparrius, 2003; Obermayer 2004). The purpose of our study is to enrich knowledge of the species composition of Caloplaca and Ramboldia in China, contributing fundamental data and reliable results for the preparation of a Lichen Flora of China. In this study, two species of Caloplaca indica and Ramboldia haematites are reported for the first time from China, and Ramboldia is reported for the first time from Fujian and Guangxi. 1. Materials & methods The specimens studied were deposited in SDNU (Lichen Section of Botanical Herbarium, Shandong Normal University). The morphological and anatomical characters of the specimens were examined under a stereo-microscope (Olympus SZ) and a polarizing microscope (Olympus CX21). Thallus and medulla were spot-tested with K (a 10% aqueous solution of potassium hydroxide), C (a saturated solution of aqueous sodium hypochlorite), I (Lugol’s iodine) and P (a saturated solution of p-phenylenediamine in 95% ethyl alcohol). The lichen substances were identified using thin layer chromatography (TLC) with solvent system C (Orange et al., 2010). Photos of the lichens were taken under Olympus SZX16 and BX61 with DP72. 2.

In terms of ascospore morphology, the species resembles Caloplaca crocea (Kremp.) Hafellner & Poelt and Caloplaca trilocularis Zahlbr. Caloplaca crocea differs mainly in having yellow to yellowish orange apothecia. Caloplaca triloculans differs mainly in having crystals in amphithecium and a thick thalline margin (Joshi et al., 2014).

Asci clavate, 37.5–45 × 10–15 μm, Lecanora-type, 8-spored; Ascospores colourless, simple, ellipsoid, 8–10 × 3–4 μm. Pycnidia not seen. On bark. ChinaXiv合作期刊 Note: A. Thallus and apothecia; B.

Kalb, Lumbsch & Elix, but differs by having norstictic acid (not fumarprotocetraric acid) in the apothecia (Kantvilas et al. 1994; Elix 2004; Kantvilas et al. 2007; Kalb et al. 2009; Gumboski 2014). Our specimens are very similar to the original description of R. haematites (Elix 2009), except that we failed to detected any connorstictic acid, which was considered one of the taxonomically important characteristics for the species by Kalb et al. (2008). Acknowledgements We thank Dr. Yogesh Joshi (Lichenology Division, Department of Botany, Kumaun University, S.S.J. Campus, Almora, Uttarakhand, India) and Dr. John A.
